I share your disagreement. In fact it is rare that anyone needs as
much as 1GB of RAM with Windows XP. Only if someone runs particularly
memory-demanding programs (such as photo- or video-editing) is it
likely that more than 512MB is needed (and not always that much
either).

So? The recommendation to which I responded was to upgrade to 1GB. My
message was to agree with Shenan that that's probably overkill.
Whether she should upgrade her RAM at all I don't know, because I
don't know what apps she runs. However, noting that she has 54.77 MB
unused, my guess is probably not.

What? Is that some sort of threat?
Ken's last sentence was: "However, noting that she has 54.77 MB unused, my
guess is probably not." What about it? Did you miss the word "unused"?

No, not of what you're trying to contribute to this thread, if anything.
I should have learned from previous sword-crossings with you; trying to coax
rationality and coherence out of you isn't worth the effort.
